Abstract
This session explores the intricate molecular choreography that governs the biological arc from birth to decline. By examining the fundamental "gears" of life – from the high-speed assembly of proteins and precise cellular logistics to the internal clocks that synchronize us with the natural world – the discussion reveals how life maintains order against a constant tide of decay. The conversation delves into the vital quality-control systems that recycle molecular waste, illustrating that the rhythm of life depends as much on graceful dismantling as it does on growth. Together, the panel investigates how the gradual loss of this molecular harmony ultimately dictates the pace of aging and the biological boundary of death.
